What FPRGs can teach us about gold

An FRPG is an acronym for a “Fantasy Role-Playing Game”, where the “role” is always an obsessive compulsive, homicidal kleptomaniac.

The part of the goldbug’s strategy I don’t get is:

  1. Invest in gold through some obscure third party gold-buying firm.
  2. Complete and utter societal collapse brought about by Obamacare.
  3. ?
  4. Profit!

If society collapses, who the hell is going to go tabulate your gold investment and then deliver the bars to you?
